Autography and Open Road Host First Ever Autography E-book Signing

(Press Release) (September 15 , 2011)— Autography LLC and Open Road Integrated Media announced today that they are hosting the first national literary ebook signing featuring Autography’s patent pending technology. Novelist Jonathon King will autograph free copies of his Edgar Award Winning The Blue Edge of Midnight at Saturday’s Bouchercon Mystery Conference in St. Louis, MO.

Autography’s e-signing technology works across all major eReader platforms and applications. Jonathan’s signature page will feature special graphics just for Bouchercon and can include a picture with the author that is also inserted into the ebook. The now personalized greeting can be exported to the consumer’s Facebook or Twitter space with a single button if they choose.

“Attendees will have the opportunity to see our technology in action by having their ebooks signed and getting photos added to the signature page,” said Autography cofounder Tom Waters. “This exclusive opportunity is available only for Bouchercon attendees who visit Jonathon Saturday afternoon.”

Rachel Chou, Chief Marketing Officer from Open Road said: “We are always looking for innovative ways to connect authors with readers and are excited to usher in the digital age of book signings with Autography and Jonathan King.”

Edgar-award winning author Jonathon King is the author of the Max Freeman crime series set in the Everglades and on the hard streets of urban South Florida. In addition to his award winning backlist titles, Open Road published an E-riginal Midnight Guardians this past year.
